Abstract

Previous research has shown that tracking algorithms cannot capture long-distance information and lead to the loss of the object when the object was deformed, the illumination changed, and the background was disturbed by similar objects. To remedy this, this article proposes an object-tracking method by introducing the Global Context attention module into the Multi-Domain Network (MDNet) tracker. This method can learn the robust feature representation of the object through the Global Context attention module to better distinguish the background from the object in the presence of interference factors. Extensive experiments on OTB2013, OTB2015, and UAV20L datasets show that the proposed method is significantly improved compared with MDNet and has competitive performance compared with more mainstream tracking algorithms. At the same time, the method proposed in this article achieves better results when the video sequence contains object deformation, illumination change, and background interference with similar objects.
